Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Project 'Learning Pool' is a verified, established Learning Technologies company (founded 2006) with significant scale (340+ employees, global enterprise reach). While the submission data itself was low-quality and hyperbolic (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience), the entity is a market leader in L&D with products like Learning Locker and Stream. The score reflects high verifiable traction and real-world utility, penalized slightly for the poor quality of the submission text.
